Orpheus no Mado summary: Set in 1903 Regensburg, Germany, the story kicks off at the all-boy Catholic S. Sebastian Music Institute. A rumor is making rounds that if anyone gazes through The Window of Orpheus at one of the towers, they would fall head over heels for a gorgeous girl only to experience a love that foretold terrible pain, akin to the heartbreaking Greek tale of Orpheus and Eurydice. Two students, Klaus and Isaac, catch a glimpse of the girl through the window, not realizing that they were spying on fellow student, Julius, who was raised as a boy. This innocent mistake turns their lives upside down and changes it forever.
